According to Media Create sales data as chronicled atNeoGAF, the unthinkable has occurred. For a period of seven days, the Xbox 360 sold approximately three times faster than the PS3. Does this prove that the PS3 is in factjust too bigfor the Japanese to ever truly love? Or could thatnew JRPGjust released in Japan last week have something to do with it?
Either way, Microsoft of Japan take note: Have whatever happened last week repeat itself for the next 156 weeks, and you may just have a chance at getting the silver in this generation’s console Olympics (at least in Japan).
